This looks to die for. I really don't like to use mixes, I like to make everything original. But what a great looking salad and wonderful flavors.

For a pretty presentation I line my dish with the salad blend, letting the green be visible, place pasta mixture in the center with bacon bits sprinkled on top and use an extra avocado to make a flower in the center. This recipe never fails at home or any take to occasion.
